I Gotta Praise

I Gotta Praise - Paul Heaton/Jacqui Abbott

Written by：Paul Heaton/Jonny Lexus

I ain't been to church in a decade or so

I gotta praise me somebody

It's playboy not bible and I'm feeling low

I gotta praise me somebody

The phone calls are totally ignored

They only ring back if they're drunk or they're bored

Get me someone or I'll turn to the lord

I gotta praise me somebody

I gotta worship I gotta praise

Spend all my minutes and waste all my days

I gotta compliment I gotta serve

I gotta give someone all they deserve

Down on my knees and I'm begging you please

I gotta find me somebody

Long term relationship just a quick squeeze

I gotta find me somebody

My football team lose every game I attend

The florists return any flowers I send

I'm sick of the hours alone that I spend

I gotta love me somebody

I gotta worship I gotta praise

Spend all my minutes and waste all my days

I gotta compliment I gotta serve

I gotta give someone all they deserve

The Sikhs have the temple the Muslims the mosque

And I can't even name any lovers I've lost

I gotta have someone to peck me on cheek

Hug me and say that they've missed me all week

I gotta worship I gotta praise

Spend all my minutes and waste all my days

I gotta compliment I gotta serve

I gotta give someone all they deserve

I gotta worship I gotta praise

Spend all my minutes and waste all my days

I gotta compliment I gotta serve

I gotta give someone all they deserve
